The unrest in middle peace and Kids..

As long as i have been in this world, the News Industry have been making a lot of money due to unrest in the Middle east. They all like to squeeze each other and create unrest in the territory of one another. Is it because they don't like each other or have they grown accustomed to the Dictatorship so much that the word Democracy is not in their dictionary. Well, Iraq was doing fine at least on the surface under the leadership of Hussein before the interruption by the American troops. And Pakistan was under no threat under the Dictator Musharraf and now the country is in crisis. In middle east everyone hate each other and the population these countries suffer.
In the article "Pity those caught in the middle" in the economist the author explains the pains of Yemeni population that is caught between the ways Saudi Arabians want things: that is to overthrow the government supporting the western ways of doing things, and Shia militants supported by the Iran who want rules of Shia-Islamist faith to be prioritize. An then there is southern Yemeni militants who want to go back to the old days when southern Yemen was a separate country. In the atmosphere of such uncertainty, one might ask what are the priorities of the people living in such environment.

Although almost every parent in Yemen want their kids to go to school and college, but the priority is not to get killed by these terrorist from all over and the kids are the one to pity for because the future of any country depend on it's younger population. Due to the unrest and the unnecessary intrusion of the Saudi's and Iranian's. Kids in Yemen are growing in fear and without proper childhood. The kids in the age group of 13- 16 have to support their families back home and they avoid renting room to save money. I say we should be ashamed as humans no matter if you are Saudi, Iranian or any other person. As a human race we should all be really ashamed of what is happening to these kids. The kids not only in Yemen, but all over the world where child labor is in place because this condition of kids tells us one thing that we have failed as a human race. I want to leave you guys with the article down below from www.gvnet.com

YEMEN: New study highlights plight of street children

Ahmed (not his real name) has been sleeping near a secondary school in the centre of Sanaa city, Yemen's capital, for almost a year. He said he had come from the northern governorate of Amran to work and support his family back home. The 14-year-old sells cigarettes and sweets in the city.

"My father went to Saudi Arabia three years ago to find a job but didn't come back. I have three brothers and one sister and my mother asked me to find any job here in Sanaa to sustain them," he said. The boy makes 400-800 Yemeni riyals (about US$2-4) a day and did not want to rent a room, in order to save money.

Ahmed is among an estimated 30,000 street children in Yemen, of whom 60 percent work and sleep on the streets and tend to be separated from their families, according to a new study. The remaining 40 percent work the streets but return to some kind of makeshift home at night.
